Answer:

  (c)  462 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of one planter is given by the formula ...

  V = LWH . . . . the product of lenght, width, and height

One of the given planters has a volume of ...

  V = (3.5 cm)(6 cm)(5.5 cm) = 115.5 cm³

Four (4) of these planters will have a total volume that is 4 times this value:

  V = 4(115.5 cm³) = 462 cm³

It will take 462 cm³ of dirt to completely fill 4 of the planters.
